Hiker dies in Grand Canyon; 7 others rescuedPosted: Updated:
GRAND CANYON, Ariz. -- An 18-year-old died at the Grand Canyon Thursday morning after his hiking group ran out of water.
A National Park Service river trip was flagged down by a group of hikers on the cliffs above the river.
The hikers told the rafters that they were out of water and in need of assistance.
Shortly thereafter, there was a report that one of the eight hikers was dead.
A park paramedic was flown to the hikers approximately halfway down the Shinumo Wash Route.
The body of an 18-year-old Native American male was located approximately one mile up the wash from the rest of the party.
The victim's body was flown out by a National Park Service helicopter.
The immediate needs of the stranded hikers were provided for until they could be flown out of the canyon. They were then assisted by Navajo Nation emergency crews.
The name of the victim is being withheld pending positive identification and notification of next of kin.
The National Park Service and Navajo Nation will be conducting a joint investigation into the incident.

IDC Financial Insights recently released a report, "Best Practices: IDC Maturity Model Benchmark—Big Data and Analytics in Financial Services," to help financial institutions assess their level of maturity in big data and analytics (BDA) against market and industry benchmarks. The report shows that a majority of financial firms (67 percent) present a "repeatable" level of BDA maturity overall, the third level of IDC Financial Insights' five-level BDA maturity model.
Some 12 percent of financial services firms fall one maturity level below and another 21 percent are one maturity level above the majority.
Those institutions that are investing in their BDA competencies report a positive correlation between BDA maturity and the successful outcomes of BDA initiatives, IDC says. On average, higher levels of BDA maturity has led to better chances of generating value and achieving expected or greater-than-expected benefits.
Institutions can use the IDC baseline to define short- and long-term goals and plan for improvement; prioritize BDA technology, staffing and other related investment decisions; and uncover "maturity gaps."
"In-market adoption of big data and analytics has reached the point where the capabilities and applications these technologies enable are becoming mainstream for a growing number of financial services firms," Michael Versace, research director at IDC Financial Insights, said in a statement. "Yet many do not yet have a set of completely mature BDA competencies across the five critical dimensions that are necessary to effectively reduce execution risks and compete with strong business, technology and operational value propositions."
The report presents benchmark data on the maturity of BDA capabilities of North American commercial, retail and investment banks; identifies the key capabilities that distinguish institutions whose BDA efforts have met or exceeded their overall expectations from their competitors whose BDA efforts have fallen short; and offers guidance for achieving BDA success.

These pocket squares from Drake's are beautiful. I've seen similar floral prints but the large paisley prints are a bit rakish.
I can't find a single repeating pattern in these fair isle scarves, making them look quite special and giving the feeling of being meticulously hand-knit by someone's grandmother.
One side of wool. One side of silk.
This Blackwatch scarf is absolutely on my Christmas wish list.

1 comment:
Drake's never fails to impress with their offerings, that reversible blackwatch scarf is perfect since it can be casual or formal. I really like those large paisley macro prints as well, it's a clever take on the design. Also, like madras on madras, I can imagine some particularly bold gents wearing fair isle scarfs with fair isle sweaters.ReplyDelete

When the last rays of sun have gone, the most intense fragrance is diffused. Jasmine, lily and rose: many flowers in a powerful sillage unveil their mysteries once night falls. Inspired by those hours impregnated with floral particles, the Night Veils collection by BYREDO offers a new perfume ritual. A single drop on the skin of one of these three new concentrates is enough to diffuse the sensuality of each flower. Three Night Veils to envelop the allure of a rare elegance. The main theme of each composition, flowers of the night – jasmine, lily and rose – playing the sensory ranges. Yet, Night Veils are not monolithic vases. Like floral shrubs which take on the fragrances which surround them, each perfume gains character through subtle contact with other essences.NotesTop: Blackcurrant, SaffronHeart: Incense, Midnight RoseBase: Ambrette Seeds, Black Amber, Patchouli

Life is becoming almost routine at Beastie Folly. Worth returned home from work to find that Gates has now almost completely removed the wooden strip off the interior of the front door frame, even after finding time to take tea with one of her friends Artemis.
Worth is managing to work until the end of shift lately and all feels good in the world. He has now commenced a ten day stay cation and has quite a few plans up his sleeve for it.
When he got home Bertie was in the living room with Gates who had been playing with him. He was tired so Worth was delighted to have the pleasure of falling asleep on the sofa while watching World at War with Bertie next to him doing the same thing. This, Worth decided is how cats are supposed to be, so he hopes Gates will exhaust the little chappie on a regular basis just before he gets home.
Tomorrow Worth and Gates leave such simple pleasures behind and head for the Potteries to seek out square shaped things that tell the time.

As the sun sets and the earth cools
The sweet essence of your love cools my body
The hairs rise without haste
The magnet between you and me will never die
So please don't even try
Only everyday it will grow stronger
As we look in each others eyes
And inhale our breath even longer
We fall deeper and deeper under the spell of love
I float up up into the heavens like a dove
Two doves together forever in high ecstasy
As snowflakes fall upon the earth
We float back down from the heavens
What we feel
What we've created is truly
Something Beautiful

This is my test Orange Lingerie Esplanade test I made in February this year.
All the notions used on this version were in my stash. Yes. Even the hook and eye tape.
What you might notice on the insides are the cups are lined. I prefer having cups lined.
Lastly, the bias seam finishes were a finished separately to the plush elastic.
This second Esplanade has the bias seams finished under the plush elastic. I like this finish better.
The key pattern adjustment was where I took out about 1.5cm out of the top edge of the upper cup.
Next time I make this, I'll try to get smaller bust cups or flat foam so I can manage the shape better. I will be using the bust cup pattern pieces for a basic bra too. I thinks this will be a handy bra for the Summer to wear under strappy dresses.Follow

If you like British rock bands, and who doesn't, then you're probably a fan of Mumford & Sons. The band, formed in 2007, includes lead vocalist Marcus Mumford, Ben Lovett on the keyboard, Winston Marshall on electric guitar, and Ted Dwane playing the bass. Sit back and let us share with you all about the band Mumford & Sons.
Hits and Awards
The group's three studio albums did well on the UK Albums Chart, as well as on the US Billboard 200. In fact, their album entitled Babel became the fastest-selling rock album of the decade in 2012. The fellows headlined at the Glastonbury Festival in 2013 and produced two live albums: Live at Shepherd's Bush Empire (2011) and The Road to Red Rocks (2012)
The band has won the Brit Award for Best British Album in 2011 and six Grammy Award nominations. In 2011, the boys' live performance at the Grammy ceremony with Bob Dylan and The Avett Brothers, raised the band's profile significantly in the US. It was at this ceremony when the lads won the Grammy Award for Album of the Year, and eight nominations for Babel. In 2013, the band members won the title of Best British Group in the form of a Brit Award.
Humble Beginnings
All four of the Mumford & Sons' band members are excellent musicians and play multiple instruments. Their name was chosen because Marcus Mumford was the most well-known at the time. Ben Lovett explained further that they all thought the name conjured up the memory of "an antiquated family business."
The Sound
At the time that the band was beginning to gel, several similar groups popped up in London's West End. The musicians were soon labeled part of the "West London folk scene," but according to the Herald Sun, Mumford was quick to downplay any association with folk acts. However, at least on iTunes, the chaps are put in the genre "PopRock." The AllMusic site notes, however, that their music is a mixture of bluegrass, rock, country, and folk,
In 2012, the band announced it would be taking a hiatus for an indefinite amount of time. Then in 2015, the group returned to the stage and heralded a new album release. The studio-recorded Wilder Mind album debuted at number one on the charts. The boys toured in South Africa in 2016 and recorded an extended play (EP) piece and released the single "There Will Be Time" in June.
Little-Known Facts
Thanks to Buzzfeed, ever the arbiter of interesting facts, there are a few things most people don't know about Mumford & Sons. Here are some of those tidbits:
· Mumford was brought up in England, but he was born in the US during the time his mom and dad were missionaries for an evangelical Christian sect known as The Vineyard. This movement emphasized the importance of music as a part of worship.
· Mumford is married to Carey Mulligan, the much-acclaimed actress. They were pen pals when they were children.
· Band member Ben Lovett loves food and loves cooking.
· Winston Marshall's dad is the adviser to the Deputy Prime Minister of Britain.
· The British GQ magazine named Winston Marshall the "sixth worst-dressed man in 2012.
This talented group of music-makers is and will continue to be, a hot commodity.

Columbia, S.C, – Lockheed Martin [NYSE: LMT] presented a check to South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley for $25,000 to support the state's flood relief efforts. This donation is in response to the major flooding that hit the state in late 2015, and will be used specifically to support flood recovery costs to return military veterans and their families to their homes.
"At Lockheed Martin, we are committed to supporting the communities in which we live and work," said Don Erickson, Lockheed Martin Greenville Operations site director. "Our hope is that this gift will not only help restore the tangible losses caused by the flood, but will also provide encouragement to those who were impacted to know that neighbors are working together to rebuild our communities."
Governor Haley has led the effort to raise funds for One SC, the organization established by the state to help South Carolinians re-build and repair their homes that were damaged or destroyed during the flood.
"We have neighbors and families who are still in need as we continue to re-build a stronger South Carolina, and we are grateful for the continued generosity and kindness of so many across the state and country," said Gov. Nikki Haley.
Many state and federal government agencies and non-profits assisted citizens immediately following the flood with short-term needs such as temporary housing, goods and clothing, but now the state has moved into the long-term recovery phase. The greatest anticipated unmet need now is getting people back into a safe, habitable home.
For additional information about Lockheed Martin's support of military and veterans, visit our website: http://lockheedmartin.com/us/who-we-are/community/customer.html.

Hi Folks,
This BDC is for tcode VA42 (Change Contract). In the transaction, one can use GOTO-->Billing Plan and change the Periodic Billing line items. In my case, I want to remove the Billing Block from the first line item. I can do that fine in the transaction, but in the BDC, the result is that all the line items are change to blank.
The BDCDATA entry for that one field is specific:
PERFORM bdc_field USING 'FPLT-FAKSP(01)' ' '.
When I run the BDC, I can see on the screen that only the first line item has a blank Billing Block Code and all the rest have their Billing Block Codes as expected. But, when the BDC run is completed and I go back to look at the screen, all the Billing Block entries are gone.
I even tried, filling all the line items with the correct Billing Block code (in the BDC), but still they get wiped out. None of the other info in the lines gets affected.
Has anyone run into this problem or knows why this happens?

I expect that the most astute of my readers have already noticed that the main page of LancesWorld.com has a brand new look. Since LancesWorld started it looked pretty much the same – a blue side bar, two mirrored pictures of myself and a cheesy "LancesWorld" logo with the motto, "The Life & The Man." All of these are now gone.
These have all been replaced with what I think is a much better looking main page with a very strong San Francisco theme to it. I actually took that picture of the Golden Gate Bridge this morning and then set to work on the new look for the site. After a few hours of toying around with different ideas, I settled on this one. I hope you enjoy it.

Happy Birthday to Me
Well, this was a very new and interesting week in the Life of Lance. In the past seven days there have been some substantial changes:
1) I moved into a new apartment with Mike and Donny Osmand (real name Don Homewood) here in San Francisco. It is actually my first ever apartment, strange as that may seem. I have lived in dorms, in-law units, houses, shared studios and all other manner of dwelling places, but never have I had my own apartment, so that is a big new change in and of itself.
2) I started a new job, nay, a new career. On Monday I started work at UC Berkeley in with Business and Administrative Services, Financial Planning & Buget. It has been over three months since I last worked, so it was pretty strange to get back into the working world. The hours, clearly, are nothing like I was working in the film industry, but the whole getting up to an alarm thing is pretty annoying.
3) I turned 24 years old. Actually, that happened today. Indeed, today is my 24th birthday. Someone told me last night that I have now entered my mid-twenties. I don't really know that I care too much about that. The older I get, the less age seems to matter and the more each birthday just becomes another day. In truth, when you consider leap years and the like, a birthday is actually some arbitrarily chosen date that we celebrate ourselves.
This weekend, sadly, isn't going to be very relaxing. It should be fun, but certainly not relaxing. Tomorrow I am booked all day. I have a planning meeting for the National Catholic Young Adults Conference from 10-1230. I am totally unprepared for it. I haven't done my work for it at all. I have been so busy with the St. Dominic's retreat that I haven't devoted sufficient (read: any) time to the NYAC. After that I have about 2 hours of downtime before I head downtown for the Chinese New Year Treasure Hunt which will take up about 5-6 hours.
Sunday morning I am going to help Mike and Donny Osmand move the last of their things from Bernabe Refugee Camp to the new apartment. I have to come up with a name for the new apartment… "my apartment" just doesn't sound cool. I have friends that live in places like "Priory West" and "Bernabe Refugee Camp" so we definitely need a cool name for our place.
Sunday evening I have a St. Dominic's Retreat meeting, mass (where I will be making the Young Adult announcement at the end of mass) and then my small faith group. I fear that Monday will come too soon.
Knocked 'em Dead
I am starting my new job at UC Berkeley today, so you may notice that I have moved the book "Knock 'em Dead" from my "Currently Reading" list to my "Read" list. Yay!
Yes, that's right, I did get the Berkeley job. I am very excited about it. True, I could have made a LOT more money working at many other places, but I just felt that the University setting is what was right for me. The mission is noble – it isn't entirely about the bottom line, which I like. Not to mention the much more reasonable hours. All in all, I am looking forward to this very much.
I am actually sitting at Starbucks just a block and a half from my new office building right now. I decided to be adventurous on my first day and take public transit over here. It took just about 1 hour from the bus stop by the new apartment to get here. Not terrible – it would take about 45 minutes to drive here, so the time difference isn't HUGE. Not to mention that I would have to pay for gas, parking and bridge toll if I drove to work every day. I have to run a few numbers just to determine which is really the most efficient way (considering both time and money). BART is pretty expensive ($6.50 round trip) and my total cost for public transit would be roughly $9 a day. However, driving would mean almost as much – if not more – I predict. As I said, I have to run some figures.

Everytime you update the content in your Revizzit Products, every single copy in existence gets the new information - and notifies your customers that an update has occured. Think of all the times you've every wanted to change the cover, fix a typo, update the information, or promote something new. Revizziting is at the core of Revizzit's philosophy?

Revizzit gives you total control over who has access to your content, and how. Revizzit pages can't be saved, or shared, or printed - unless you say so. And you can choose on a page by page basis. The locations of your documents and other media are protected and can't be shared or revealed without your permission. Revizzit even protects you from people copying and pasting your content. Sweet.
Refunds & Returns
What if digital product refunds worked just like the real world - the product gets "returned" when the user gets refunded?
It's good business to guarantee customer satisfaction. But how did it happen in the digital world that you give a refund AND your customer keeps the product? We believe that digital products should work just like the real world. When you return something to a store, you don't have it anymore. And that is exactly how Revizzit works.
What if your product could fully communicate with your customers - monthly, weekly, even daily - without emailing them?
We all get way too much email. How much of it ends up in spam filters, or unopened in the trash? Revizzit gives you a brand new way to communicate with your audience. Right inside your product. When you update a page with your message, your audience sees the new page. When you update your product, just send a ping, and everyone will be notified that there is something new. And if it's a really important update, go ahead and send an email, too. We won't say anything.
Anti-Piracy Technology
What if illegal video recordings of your content, whether by screen capture or video camera, instantly revealed the identification of the offender?
Revizzit protects your products with several layers of technology. In addition to locking your product in our encrypted player, and giving you control over who can download, and protecting the hosting location of your product, we've also developed an exclusive technology that invisibly fingerprints your content - whether it's a page of text, a video or an interactive game. When someone tries to steal your content via video camera or screen capture, our technology immediately identifies the individual. Whether you teach courses, have films or scripts, employee manuals, or exclusive coaching programs, Revizzit protects your content. Revizzit delivers the most sophisticated level of security at a fraction of the cost of other DRM solutions.
New Target Marketing
What if your new evergreen, dynamic product was revizzited so often that it created internal traffic worthy of advertising, upsales and even affiliate offers?
Everytime someone opens a Revizzit Product, not only are they enjoying content, but they are a visitor to your product - in other words, traffic. The more you've engaged your customers with more and better content, the more they'll come back. You'll have their full attention. An audience that is already invested in the content that you provide. It's the perfect opportunity to invite them in for more - through the ads, and offers right inside your product. Just imagine what kind of response rates you'll generate.
What if your product, no matter how large, took up almost no hard drive space on your customer's system?
Getting new content is great. But all the room it takes up on your hard drive isn't. Revizzit Products store the big stuff up in the cloud - so no matter how much content you deliver, it never clogs up your customer's systems. And, they can access their products from any computer they're using.

And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes and our sacred Honor.
So concludes the Declaration of Independence of the United States of America. Our nation's founders, those declaring independence and those fighting to secure it, were men who valued honor and who derived their politics from moral principle.
Two hundred years later, such people still exist. But they are all too frequently effaced by greedy cowards who would exploit republican government for their own aggrandizement.
The Washington Post yesterday profiled one such dishonorable coward. Allen Raymond, a one-time Republican "operative", spent three months in federal prison for a conspiracy to shut down the New Hampshire DemocratIC Party's phone lines on a close election day. He admits to that and to other dirty tricks.
His contrition could freeze beer. "I can't have all these regrets. I got my comeuppance and I paid my debt and I don't work in politics anymore. I can't even vote," he says. "So I'm not gonna waste my time on regrets, because I paid the price."
No, he hasn't. Mr. Raymond, and other dirty tricksters like him, can't even grasp, let alone pay, the price of what they do. They undermine truth; Mr. Raymond calls it "malleable". They increase the difficulty faced by honest people trying to govern rightly. "The worst kind of client you can have is one who holds too firmly to his or her ideals," Mr. Raymond says. "Election operatives like myself and the kind of politicians who hire us have ensured that idealists can't win elections. Only the cynics are making the laws."
This, in the United States of America, the first modern nation founded on ideals.
Mr. Raymond and his ilk are a disgrace to America and to the noble heritage of republican government.

Morrissey slams Smiths reunion claimsFebruary 7th, 2009 - 2:33 pm ICT by ANI
London, February 7 (ANI): Morrissey has slammed reports claiming his reunion with his former band The Smiths.
The iconic singer revealed he would not be revisiting the old tunes with the group since he despised nostalgia.
"Why? What''s the point? Just to satisfy other people''s nostalgia? That''s all it is - nostalgia! No, I can"t see any reason for it; I do not see the point, the Daily Express quoted him as telling New Zealand rock magazine Rip It Up.
But if anybody does, I"d be delighted to hear it.
"I don"t think there is any (unfinished business). I really don"t. Really, I"m okay by myself… And I don"t say that to have a dig at anybody else. So, no, I do not see the point of it, it eludes me," he added. (ANI)

The Carolina Corps hires recent UNC-Chapel Hill graduates -- smart young people who want to serve and change the world -- and places them as college and financial-aid advisers in schools across North Carolina. Our advisers help students look for colleges that will be good fits for their skills, talents, and aspirations. Then they help students complete admissions and financial-aid applications, search for private scholarships, and leap over any other hurdles that might stand in the way of their enrollment. This year our advisers are serving 56 high schools with more than 10,000 graduating seniors.
The Carolina Corps is part of the National College Advising Corps -- a consortium of similar programs based at other universities across the country. The National Corps, which is also headquartered here at UNC-Chapel Hill, was featured recently in an article in the Chronicle of Higher Education.
Our advisers are amazing people, and they're very good at their jobs. And although they love Carolina, they know that their mission is to help each student find the right fit -- a place where he or she can thrive.
That's what we want for every student -- and that's what we want for you, too. Please let us know if we may help in any way. And thank you, as always, for your interest in UNC.

I am wondering if anyone knows about any Facebook pages specific to my needs.
You see, I absorb so much junk on Facebook, I have decided to unfollow almost everything, start fresh and like a few educational Facebook pages.
I have liked a few news/media pages already, but found it hard to find unbiased or non-propaganda pages which are direct and to the point. If anyone knows of any could you let me know. I am up for humorous pages too!
I was mainly wondering if there are any pages which give posts about facts of history. So I can receive little nuggets of information about what happened in our past and helped construct the world we live in today. It sounds specific, but anything that just helps me broaden my knowledge and my understanding of the present world and society is basically what I am looking for. Thanks in advance.
hello users welcome to gamer-avenue.net this site is up agian . don't be shy and start contribute agian . for any help msg Mroreniko or any other admin . thanks and have a great time !

The Sports Xchange
Big 12 preview: Oklahoma State
STILLWATER, Okla. -- Built for speed, the Oklahoma State offense entered fall camp attempting to fine-tune its attack to go even faster.
The Sports Xchange
Big 12 preview: Oklahoma State
STILLWATER, Okla. -- Built for speed, the Oklahoma State offense entered fall camp attempting to fine-tune its attack to go even faster.
That could spell trouble for opposing defenses considering the Cowboys were the media pick to capture the Big 12 title, a championship they won two years ago behind the dynamic duo of Brandon Weeden and Justin Blackmon. They are also ranked No. 13 in the preseason poll by Associated Press.
The tag of favorite was applied in spite of a question at quarterback as Clint Chelf and J.W. Walsh entered camp bidding for the starting role. Each played last season, along with Wes Lunt, who left the program. Chelf finished the year with five straight starts, leading Oklahoma State past Purdue in the Heart of Dallas Bowl as the Cowboys finished 8-5 overall and 5-4 in the Big 12.
Now, they want to go on the attack. Not only on offense, but on defense.
"Our defensive line is much more aggressive in coming off the ball," Oklahoma State coach Mike Gundy said early on in fall camp. "It makes it harder of our offense to make plays."
Once the offense becomes more comfortable, in all likelihood with Chelf as the appointed starter, it will look to play at an even higher tempo. Its 503-yard average ranked only fourth in the Big 12 a year ago, as did the 672 plays the Cowboys ran.
Part of the reason behind snapping the ball quicker is to make the Oklahoma State system even more appealing to recruits, though the Cowboys have made great strides already landing high-level prospects under Gundy.
"We think speed is an advantage on offense," Gundy said. "We also feel like young men who are in high school that have an opportunity to touch the football want to play in that (fast-paced) style. They look forward to it."
As much as the skill players get the bulk of the attention, Oklahoma State will rely heavily on three returning linemen who started last season, including standout guard Parker Graham. Josh Stewart enjoyed a breakout year leading the OSU receivers with 101 catches for 1,210 yards, though the stable is well-stocked with other veterans such as Blake Jackson, Charlie Moore and Tracy Moore. Jeremy Smith has contributed to the rushing attack as a backup behind all-conference pick Joseph Randle.
All the experience, including what Chelf provides as a senior familiar with the system, will help in the transition made by new coordinator Mike Yurcich, who was hired out of the Division II ranks to replace Todd Monken.
Defensively, the change of focus began by dumping Bill Young as the coordinator. The veteran coach was adept at teaching the Cowboys the art of generating turnovers, but they often had trouble making stops and getting off the field. Glenn Spencer was promoted into the sole role of coordinator and hopes that by the Cowboys becoming more aggressive, they can generate more stops.
Defensive tackle Calvin Barnett is a huge key to the defense after getting on in eight tackles for loss a year ago. With him to plug the middle, opportunities should be created for the linebackers, who are led by Shaun Lewis. Safety Daytawion Lowe is the top returning tackler, as well as a leader in the back end. The cornerbacks, led by Justin Gilbert, are expected to play more press coverage after playing loose in the past and waiting for interception opportunities.
Gundy was pleased with his team's attitude as it launched fall camp and prepared for a potentially gritty opener against an SEC opponent, Mississippi State. That game, on Aug. 31, will be played at a neutral site, Houston's Reliant Stadium.
"Our body language, our attitude, the team chemistry of these guys is really good," Gundy said.
SPOTLIGHT ON SEPTEMBER: Oklahoma State was criticized last season for scheduling a Championship Subdivision weakling, Savannah State, in its opener. The Cowboys corrected that unsightly flaw by drawing Mississippi State of the SEC for a neutral site matchup in Houston to begin the 2013 season. The Bulldogs have enjoyed three straight winning seasons and gone to three straight bowls under coach Dan Mullen. The opener should be a test the Cowboys pass before traveling to Texas-San Antonio and playing at home against Lamar. Oklahoma State opens Big 12 play at West Virginia on Sept. 29, leaving the Cowboys with the strong likelihood they can get through September undefeated.

Saturday Draft: 1pm Feb 25
Saturday Draft: 3 rounds swiss.
Prizes: 1st: 4 packs, 2nd: 2 packs, 3-4th: 1 pack. I bought a box, you can get whatever you want from this box (one third ISD, two thirds DKA) until the box is empty.
Boosters: DKA-ISD-DKA (OR ISD-ISD-DKA if people want)
Buyin: $15 or 4 packs (ISD/DKA).
Raredraft after: We'll vote on this, day of.
Signup: Post your name on this list only if you're 100% to show up. If you're a maybe, put your name on the waitlist. Copy and paste it into your post. Also: I don't do credit or "I'll pay you back later" stuff. Bring cash or packs, please.
Saturday Feb 25:
1. Chris (Dax)
If there is demand for it, we can do two drafts: one starting at 10 am, the next when the 10am finishes. We'll have to keep a tight time schedule, though, which means 15 minutes to deckbuild and 45 minute rounds.
Post if you're interested in playing a 10 am round so I know who's interested.
Oh, and lastly, for anyone grinding PW points, these will be sanctioned events if we get 8 players.
Lol grinding PWP in Kelowna seems loose.
Points (on pace for):
Garrett - 358 (570)
Cameron - 138 (220)
Chris - 123 (200)
Blake - 118 (190)
Gordo - 118 (190)
Cory - 106 (170)
Josh - 80 (130)
Tyson - 76 (120)
Art - 73 (115)
So aside from Garrett, we're all pretty much behind the curve for getting a GP bye next season. 300 points is one bye, 600 is two, 1200 is three.
Schedule of nearby GPs this year:
March 3: Seattle (no byes)
June 23: Vancouver (season 1 total)
Oct 13: San Fran (season 2 total)
So basically, if you want a bye in Vancouver in June, you need to get to 300 points before April 1st.
Grinding PWP doesn't seem that loose, espescially since with a bit of effort, a bunch of us are close. Winning an 8-man sanctioned event is 10 points. Doesn't seem like that much effort to get together some weekday 8man booster or constructed tournaments.
I never think of grinding for 1 bye. Hardly seems worth it, haha.
I am pretty sure that I can play Saturday, not sure if I would want to do two drafts though. But yeah, count me in unless I say otherwise.
Saturday Feb 25:
1. Chris (Dax)
2. oceanwolf (Josh)
No dice for tomorrow, not enough interest.
See you guys at the game day.
Hey, just got a box of DKA today and would rather draft it, then open up all the boosters. So anyone for draft this Saturday or Sunday?
Also, anyone interested in starting a pauper league?

Their Royal Highnesses are set to visit British Columbia and Yukon from September 24 to October 1
OTTAWA, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Sept. 12, 2016) - Department of Canadian Heritage
Sailing a tall ship, going fishing, experiencing the rainforest, sampling some of British Columbia's harvest, meeting immigrants and refugees and discussing mental-health issues with first responders-all this and more, plus the usual colourful protocol events, are features of this second Royal Tour to Canada of The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge.
The Honourable Mélanie Joly, Minister of Canadian Heritage, today unveiled the itinerary for this Royal Tour, which will see Their Royal Highnesses visit Victoria, Vancouver, Haida Gwaii, Bella Bella and Kelowna, in British Columbia; and Whitehorse and Carcross, in Yukon, from September 24 to October 1, 2016.
Quick Facts
"The work that so many of us are doing to build a better future for our children is significant. Their Royal Highnesses will highlight the many Canadians who volunteer or work in obscurity. In addition, this Tour, more than any other, features important engagement with Indigenous peoples. As we follow the Royal Tour of The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, we will learn more about ourselves and our country."

Can you train in something that you haven't actually done?
Teaching someone to do something that you have never done yourself is difficult. While it is possible to teach someone the theories that they can apply in their own workplace, or to extrapolate experience from one field into a related area, trying to teach someone a skill that you have never used in practice is highly problematic.
One issue that can arise when a trainer attempts to teach skills that they have never used is that it can reduce trainees' confidence in their instructor. This is particularly true if a lack of experience causes the trainer to make any mistakes, however minor. A trainee who has more experience in a certain area than the trainer will quickly spot any basic errors, and once they have started to doubt their trainer's authority on the subject, they are less likely to listen or to take on board what they are being taught.
A good trainer should never attempt to teach something that they are unable to explain properly or to answer commonly asked questions about. Trainers should be able to identify common misunderstandings and problems, and know what is most relevant to the trainee's needs. Trainers also need to be able to teach by example, as this is the preferred and most effective route of learning for many trainees, which demands a certain amount of experience. The CIPD reports that 46% of trainees prefer to be shown how to do something and then given an opportunity to practice. Experience is a key part of the learning process, as envisioned in models such as Kolb's Learning Cycle, and if trainees are learning through experience, the trainer needs to have undergone the same process. In many cases, when experience is required, a small amount of practice can help the trainer to acquire it. For example, a trainer who is about to demonstrate how to use a new piece of software should be able to dedicate at least a couple of hours to exploring its various functions. In other situations, many years of experience may be necessary to master a skill well enough to teach it.
However, while it can be very important, experience alone cannot make a good trainer. The ability to teach well is just as important as having the right knowledge or experience, and effective teaching is something that needs to be learned and practiced. Teaching is an art that requires superb presentation and interpersonal skills together with the ability to recognise the different techniques that will work for different kinds of learners. Although experience can help a trainer to gain a deeper understanding of a particular skill or subject, it cannot substitute for the ability to build a rapport with students. In some situations, it can even be advantageous for an instructor to have less experience in the field their trainees know well. A trainer who has had different experiences than the people they are training can bring a fresh perspective that may prove valuable, just as the Harvard Business Review suggests that leaders coming from outside the field can often have a positive impact.
Some trainers do have a talent for 'winging it' and in some cases that is so well developed that attendees may not know that they are less than familiar with the subject matter. However, that can lead to overconfidence and the inevitability that one day it will bite them somewhere nasty.
Is it better to have an engaging trainer who is less familiar with the subject or a dull expert as a trainer? Now that would make an interesting discussion.

Dark matter (DM) is one of the pillars of our cosmological understanding yet its nature is still elusive. It makes up about 85% of the Universe' matter but its presence has been revealed only through gravity. The most interesting probes of its presence and nature is the merger of two clusters (or groups) of galaxies. Mergers mix the contents of galaxy groups and clusters, but each component behaves differently. While the galaxies and DM from both colliding parties take part in merger, they are almost unaffected by this event and remain confined in the original sub-structures. However, particles in the two colliding clouds of hot gas (which is the main baryonic, i.e. ordinary matter, component of clusters of
galaxies) interact with one another via the electromagnetic force, and the resulting friction causes the gas from the two merging parties to be slowed down and separated from the dark matter. The presence of DM and constraints on its self-interaction properties can therefore be inferred by measuring a spatial offset between the X-ray emission of the hot gas and the total mass distribution as revealed by gravitational lensing.
This separation has been found only in a handful of very massive clusters, such as in the famous Bullet Cluster. However a team led by Dr. Fabio Gastaldello (INAF-IASF Milan) and including Dr. Stefano Ettori and Dr. Massimo Meneghetti from the Observatory of Bologna have found a much smaller group in the process of merging that also show separating dark matter (see figure on the side). As part of the X-ray follow-up with XMM-Newton of strong lensing systems at the mass scale of group of galaxies found in the lensing survey of the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope (CFHT) they discovered that in the object SL2S J08544-0121 the group hot gas is concentrated in one large cloud whereas DM and galaxies are split in two distinct parts. The strong lensing arcs located in the component in the West mark one of the DM clump (and their asymmetric configuration indicates the need of the other mass component, as also traced by the bimodal galaxy distribution) which is clearly separated by the peak of the X-ray emission. In the image on the side, the gas and the dark matter distributions recovered from the X-ray and gravitational lensing analysis are shown in red and in blue, respectively. The total mass of this object, nicknamed the Bullet Group, is seven times less than in the Bullet Cluster. Galaxy groups like this are more common than large clusters, so there should be many more waiting to be discovered in upcoming surveys.

Permanent-electro magnetic technology changed the manufacturing world's view of using magnets for machining operations. These newer chucks were more powerful and the clamp forces generated were predictable and accurate. With this evolution, turning on a magnetic lathe chuck has become more accepted as the best way for presenting the whole workpiece to the machine tool.
Benefits of Lathe Chucks
- A radial pole lathe chuck is the best way to uniformly clamp a ring without distorting it.
- A radial pole lathe chuck provides best access for OD & ID and face machining on rings at the same time through the use of simple top tooling.
- Clamp forces are predictable and can be compared with cutting forces to ensure safety. In the case of larger rings (say >12" diameter), often the forces generated can outperform conventional chucking.
- The chucks can be hardwired through the machine spindle or power can be supplied through a removable quick disconnect cable.
- Cycle times for magnetization/demagnetization takes less than 1-2 seconds depending on the model of the lathe chuck.
- The pole surface is "all-steel" to provide better longevity and accuracy than with "resin" based systems.
Two standard chuck model designs are provided – the number of poles will vary with the application:
- LC-XX-S is a single magnet system for the safe grinding and hard turning of magnetically difficult materials such as bearing steels. This lathe chuck has a demagnetization cycle.
- LC-XX-D is double magnet system mainly utilized for heavy turning of softer materials.
DocMagnet has additional options for magnetic workholding on lathes:
- Magnetic modules that can slide in and out on tee-slots
- Tee-slotted magnetic chucks for ease of top-tooling positioning
DocMagnet Lathe Chucks are designed to suit the customer's application. Turning applications warrant careful consideration due to having dynamic and variable factors. DocMagnet Engineers are on hand to review these specific application details and provide the right solution

LCB empowers people to understand and respond to public opinion in real time
LCB empowers people to understand and respond to public opinion in real time
WASHINGTON, DC--(Marketwired - Jul 12, 2017) - AlphaVu, the leader in social listening, data mining, and public opinion research in the transit and infrastructure industries, today introduced National Transit LCB™, a comprehensive metric designed to provide leaders with real-time, actionable insight into public opinion around public transportation safety, operations, and capital construction projects. The National Transit LCB™ is the first in a portfolio of metrics that will be released over the summer of 2017 covering ports, airports, electricity, water, and pipeline infrastructure.
AlphaVu's National Transit LCB™ metric measures the frequency of individuals' engagement on social media with transit agencies across the country and combines that data with audience sentiment, relative to a defined list of specific topics. The National Transit LCB™ can be segmented by a wide range of adjustable variables, including region, industry, market size, and financing.
"Transit agencies, construction companies, project management firms, and private equity firms need actionable data on how the public perceives transportation infrastructure. The National Transit LCB™ gives them an immediate window into public opinion so they can form the best strategies to build, finance, and manage America's bus and rail systems," said Scott Wilkinson, President of AlphaVu.
Traditional public opinion polling still relies heavily on phone surveys and other outdated methodologies that are ill-suited to today's digital age. By contrast, AlphaVu's LCB measures the conversation right where it's happening and among those most heavily involved, using proprietary algorithms to synthesize vast amounts of data from social media and digital channels. When cross-referenced with voter rolls, Census data, and other third party data sets, the result is a granular portrait of public opinion that far exceeds the traditional polls in depth, detail, and scale.
The LCB adds a critical new feature to AlphaVu's expanding toolset. From this consolidated metric, AlphaVu can dig deeper into the specific drivers of public sentiment all the way down to the individual influencers shaping the conversation in individual communities across the country.

The chart above visualizes the trend in National Transit LCB(TM) over the past two weeks, segmented by market size--Metropolis, Urban, Suburban, Rural, and Micro. Each point on the graph corresponds to the LCB of each market size segment on that day. Upward trends in LCB are often a result of positive public service announcements, holidays, and service improvements, all conversations that result in significantly higher levels of positive engagement. Other changes in LCB, like a downward trend, signify an increase in negative conversations, usually regarding service complaints or community displeasure with capital construction projects, while a plateau represents an unchanging level of engagement and frequency within a given period of time.

Do you talk to your dogs? It's a pretty common thing that pet owners do. We treat our animals as if they were human and could understand every word coming out of our mouths. Sure, they understand basic commands like "sit" and stay." But, do we believe that they really can understand us?
No, our dogs don't understand English, that's ridiculous. But dogs are acutely proficient at understanding vocal tones and patterns. Daniel Martino found a pair of shredded up shoes and knew it had to be one of his dogs. In the video below, you'll see how the guilty party reacts to Daniel's tone. Before watching, do you think it was the pit bull or the dachshund?
Daniel begins the confrontation by asking who ate the shoes. "Who was it? Who did this to my insole? Which one of you two was it?" The way they react is hilarious. Each dog has a different way of dealing with the situation... watch below to see what they do!
H/T: Daniel Martino
